Product Review with NGB Kinks

Compliments of the season!!!! I sincerely hope you’ve had a very merry Christmas.

In this post, I’ll be doing a review of some products that were given to me by NGB Kinks.

NGB Kinks is an online brand that stocks a wide range of hair products; from shampoos, conditioners, gels, hair tools… whatever you need for your hair, NGB Kinks has it. Want to know the best part? They’re super affordable, which is great since this blog is about living on a budget!😂

I received 7 items in total.

• Travel sized Gorilla Snot Gel.
• Shea Moisture Yucca and Plantain Anti-Breakage Strengthening Conditioner.
• Mega Growth Anti-Breakage Deep Conditioner.
• A Satin bonnet.
• A Micro fiber towel.
• A Heat cap.
• Plastic caps.

I wanted to wait till I had used all the products at least once before making this post and, now that I have, here’s what I think about them.

1. Shea Moisture Yucca and Plantain Anti-Breakage Strengthening Conditioner:

The second this product touched my hair, I knew it was a keeper.

It did such a great job; softened up my hair, making it easy to remove tangles and knots and left it super moisturized.

I applied a generous amount of this conditioner to my hair after shampooing it, put my hair in twists, left it on for about 10 minutes, then rinsed it out, with my hair still in twists. The result? Soft, moisturized hair!

NGB Kinks has this on sale for #4,000.

 

2. Mega Growth Anti-Breakage Deep Conditioner:

This is the smaller size of this product. It did not exactly leave my hair soft, probably because it’s geared towards strengthening rather than moisturising. So, if what you’re looking for is moisture, you should skip this.

If, however, you’re looking for something that’ll leave your hair stronger, then you can go with this product.

It retails on NGB Kinks for #1,000.

 

3. Gorilla Snot Gel in the travel size:

I love Gorilla Snot Gel. It gets the job done whenever I want to get my hair into a sleek bun.

What’s better than regular Gorilla Snot Gel?? Gorilla Snot Gel in a travel size! It’s literally a dream come true.

I was not looking forward to having to stuff my regular sized Gorilla Snot gel bottle in my luggage when I had to leave for NYSC camp, so imagine my joy when I got this product right before I had to leave!

The only issue I have with this gel is that it leaves my hair with flakes, so I only use it when I’m close to wash day.

This product goes for #800 on NGB Kinks.

 

4. Micro fiber towel/cap:

This item is sooooo innovative!

It’s a micro fiber towel that has a hoop and a button, so it’s able to clip up into a turban/cap! It gets so annoying when I wrap a towel around my head and it keeps coming undone; with this item, I never have to worry about that anymore!

Dry your hair and keep it out of your way until you’re ready for it? Yes please!

This is sold for #1,000 at NGB.

 

5. Satin bonnet:

If you haven’t heard this before, hear it now: COTTON IS TOO HARSH FOR YOUR HAIR, PLEASE DON’T SLEEP ON IT!

There! Cotton rubbing on your hair may cause it to grow fragile and, eventually, break off. Ditch the cotton, get silk or satin instead.

If you don’t like to tie a scarf around your head, get a bonnet. If you don’t like either of them, get a satin or silk pillowcase.

NGB Kinks has bonnets in stock going for #500, for the smaller sizes and #1,000 for the bigger sizes.

 

6. Heat cap:

I love using heat caps, especially when I put deep conditioners in my hair. It’s very hard for my hair to absorb products and using heat helps to fix that.

I’ve found over time that, with a heat cap, my hair absorbs products better and is able to actually be moisturized.

This one sells for #2,000 on NGB Kinks.

 

7. Plastic caps:

These are a vital part of my wash day routine; after applying my deep conditioner, I stuff my hair in one of these and then put my heat cap on over it.

These go for #500 per pack on NGB Kinks.

This is me saying a huge Thank You to NGB Kinks for these products!
